REAL-WORLD INTERPRETIVE
One-sentence brief
Hiding whether a participant is human or AI may increase short-term surprise, but it undermines informed consent, privacy, trust, and the ability to challenge consequential outcomes.
REAL-WORLD INTERPRETIVE
INTERNATIONAL GAME SYSTEMS
AI NPC Identity Disclosure, Consent, and Human–AI Boundaries
A clear rule that players can tell when they are interacting with an AI-controlled character, what the system can remember, and which decisions always remain deterministic or human-reviewed.
LEVEL 1
ORIENTATION
Why this matters
REAL-WORLD INTERPRETIVE
Three key points
- AI identity is disclosed in accessible, persistent ways.
- Players can inspect memory scope, mute personalization, and delete eligible conversational memory.
- AI dialogue cannot impersonate staff, a clinician, a real player, or an authoritative source.
LEVEL 2
WORKING BRIEF
Evidence, context, and limits
REAL-WORLD INTERPRETIVE
Disclose controller type without dehumanizing the character
An AI-controlled character can remain narratively rich while carrying a clear accessible marker in profile, conversation details, and help text. The marker does not reveal secret plot state or reduce the character to a machine joke.
REAL-WORLD INTERPRETIVE
Separate conversation from authority
Generative dialogue may propose words, emotions, or low-stakes options. Accounts, payments, contracts, inventory, sanctions, medical or safety decisions, and canonical world state are handled by deterministic services or authorized human review.
REAL-WORLD INTERPRETIVE
Explain and limit memory
Players can see whether an NPC remembers the current scene, game session, relationship history, or approved long-term facts. Sensitive disclosures are minimized, purpose-limited, and not silently shared across unrelated characters or games.
REAL-WORLD INTERPRETIVE
Make personalization optional
Players can choose standard authored dialogue, reduced personalization, or no generative interaction without losing essential progression. Withdrawal of consent stops future optional processing and does not lower reputation.
REAL-WORLD INTERPRETIVE
No covert human impersonation
AI NPCs do not claim to be a real employee, another player, a therapist, a government official, or an external authority. Synthetic voices and text remain attributable to the fictional character and platform.
REAL-WORLD INTERPRETIVE
Challenge and correct consequential output
A player can report an AI statement, view the relevant context category, receive a human-reviewed answer, correct stored facts, and obtain remedy when an error caused loss or harm.
